Isotope effect on the Casimir force
Lanyi Xie, Fuwei Yang, Bai Song
Isotopic dependence of the Casimir force is key to probing new physics and pushing novel technologies at the micro and nanoscale, but is largely unexplored. In 2002, an isotope eff…
Isotope effect on radiative thermal transport
Lanyi Xie, Bai Song
Isotope effects on heat conduction and convection have been known for decades. However, whether thermal radiation can be isotopically engineered remains an open question. Here, we…
Fundamental limit to the rectification of near-field heat flow: The potential of intrinsic semiconductor films
Qizhang Li, Qun Chen, Bai Song
We derive the fundamental limit to near-field radiative thermal rectification mediated by an intrinsic semiconductor film within the framework of fluctuational electrodynamics. By…
Strong suppression of near-field thermal transport between twisted bilayer graphene near the magic angle
Fuwei Yang, Bai Song
Twisted bilayer graphene (TBLG) has recently emerged as a versatile platform for studying a variety of exotic transport phenomena. Here, we present a theoretical study of near-fiel…
Giant radiative thermal rectification using an intrinsic semiconductor film
Qizhang Li, Qun Chen, Bai Song
Rectification of heat flow via a thermal diode is not only of fundamental interest, but can also enable a range of novel applications in thermal management and energy conversion. H…
Observation of second sound in graphite at temperatures above 100 K
Samuel Huberman, Ryan A. Duncan, Ke Chen +6
Wavelike thermal transport in solids, referred to as second sound, has until now been an exotic phenomenon limited to a handful of materials at low temperatures. This has restricte…
